Unrelated to the current discussion but I figured this might be the place to find people who have experience with plotter printers. I've bought an old second hand DesignJet and the lines that are supposed to be black come out like this. Is this likelier to be solved with a new cartridge or running the printhead cleaning utlity? Or is it just fucked?
I'd just run the printhead cleaning program but that'd be a huge faff because I can't get it to work with the modern drivers. So I would need to install Windows XP on an old laptop for it.
